    No, you need to pay for each exam attempt (unless you purchased Exam Replay before your first exam)

    Yes, a reattempt is allowed if the exam was not passed.

    • After the first failed attempt, the waiting period is 24 hours before retaking the exam.
    • After that, a 14-day waiting period applies between subsequent attempts.
    • The same exam can be taken a maximum of five times in a 12-month period from the first attempt.
    • If the exam was already passed, it cannot be retaken unless the certification has expired.
    • Retakes must be paid for, unless a separate free-offer policy applies.

    If the exam was taken under a free certification exam offer, that offer is typically valid for one attempt only, and any retake must be scheduled separately.

    A waiting-period waiver is only available if there were internet connectivity issues or equipment failure during the exam and a Pearson VUE case was created.
